Short on cash but love seafood?

Carmina was planning to get a haircut on November 12, 2025, at Headway Salon in Tomas Morato . I called Mom Violy to see if she wanted to have lunch together and let her choose the restaurant. She then asked which seafood restaurant is located in Tomas Morato. Carmina sent the link to Mom Violy it is called,  Dampa Seafood Grill . When we arrived at Dampa Seafood Grill, the music was very loud. Since Mom Violy doesn’t like loud music, she asked if they could turn it down a bit. Upon entering, someone will ask how many are in your party; we told them there were only two of us, and they showed us to our seats. Mom Violy also requested a spot away from the direct blast of the air-conditioning. The restaurant has a policy to read before you place your order. Mom Violy decided to order her favorite butter garlic crab and shrimp from the menu, pleased to find the prices affordable. Yes, they have clean restrooms for both genders and a parking area in front of the restaurant. Mom Violy,...

Mother's Circus Animal Cookies

Carmina has found her childhood cookies that she uses to eat when I was young.  Do you remember the Mother's Circus Animal Cookies that had pink or white frosting with decorations? Lately I have been going through my food ventures in snacks I can remember what I use to eat when I was young to check if it was available to purchase living in the Philippines. My luck began when each day I kept checking what was new and what I can purchase online to bring back my childhood memories. Mother's Circus Animal Cookies remind me when you go out with your family to watch a circus under a tent filled with people being entertained. I remember bringing these Mother's Circus Animal Cookies to school to share with your friends during your lunch break with box milk sold in the school cafeteria.  The days when you're once young you tend to reminisce to the snacks you grew up to bring back the flavor in your taste buds. The great part the Mother's Circus Animal Cookies wasn't melt...

Di' Mark's Pizza

After all the stress of buying food for my mom and running around the house, I realized I was hungry but had lost my appetite when it was time to eat. I had been craving minestrone soup, so I searched for it on the Grab app. Luckily, I discovered that Di' Mark's Pizza served it there. The minestrone wasn’t quite the same as the one I grew up with—just the noodles were different. Still, the taste transported me back to my childhood, reminding me of enjoying it with my family when I was young. The soup came with two pieces of garlic bread, as shown in the picture, all for PHP 150.00 ($3.00). I decided to treat myself and splurged on a complete meal for the day. My favorite has always been spinach and cheese ravioli with authentic tomato sauce. Thankfully, Di' Mark's Pizza had it on their menu for PHP 350.00 ($7.00). I left as a happy camper, my tummy full of delicious food—a well-deserved treat. I couldn't resist ordering something new. I missed the microwavable pizza...
